Hello! I'm a current student at a small BFA MT program that is only a few years old. I really do enjoy my classes and I've seen a lot of growth in myself as a performer during my time here, but a lot of days I'm still torn!
When I went through the college audition process my senior year, I was rejected from all of my favorite programs. I took a chance on a smaller, newer BFA program and was content with my decision for the first year, but now in my second year a big part of me regrets not taking a gap year and reevaluating my college list and trying to go to a more established, respected MT program.
It makes me nervous for my future that my program is so new (only a few years old!), and doesn't really have any alumni working as successful actors. I am worried that when I graduate and go to auditions with all these other kids who come from super well known, solid, established programs with countless broadway and national tour alumni, that I won't stand a chance.
So, I'm just wondering what your honest opinions are! If you have any personal stories or experiences too, I want to hear them!
